The cabin was nice but there were too many steps, we even had to step down into the showers! The showers both need lighting as the bathroom light is insufficient. There's a step up into the kitchen and step down to the bedrooms. My 84 year old Mother had difficulty with all of the step up/down required to navigate safely.If there are no mobility issues, the cabin is nicely appointed and just off the road to the park.

The location couldn’t have been better! Right near a park entrance and easy access to everything Estes Park has to offer. And the size and layout of the home was perfect for our four adults and two children.We also had several mule deer and elk sightings right out of our window….so close!

Rocky Mountain adventure

This property was close to RNMP, and Estes park. It was not near the creek which I thought it was according to photos. Very close to neighbors. We weren’t there much so it didn’t matter. Overall fine place to stay.

Visiting the RMNP

We had great stay at the national park, the house was very comfortable and great location for accessing the National Park. There was an issue with the cleaning of the home prior to our arrival but the host was very responsive and had the issue resolved in a very timely fashion. We really appreciated the quick response and had a wonderful stay.John

Perfect place, perfect location!

We (2 adults) stayed here for a 4 day trip to RMNP. You can't beat how close it is to the park entrance! It was well stocked with everything you'd need. The beds were very comfy and great to sleep on after a long day of hiking. Hosts were very responsive to communication and very easy to work with. They also have a lovely binder of recommendations and things to do while visiting, which was really thoughtful.

Fall in the oark

This was a great property with a perfect location The house was super clean and quiet. But here is the rub...the house in NO WAY is accurately captured by the photos of the outdoors...there is no unobstructed view.. you are surrounded by houses front, back and side...The furniture like every VRBO I've ever been in was mediocre at best and the beds were uncomfortable. Not everyone wants to sleep on a Tempur-pedic. A final quirky complaint is why report the the water was tested two years ago drink at your own risk? I'll accept that if I am paying 3rd world prices but I'm not. Let me know about this and not in passing..or be a bit more proactive and get filtered water or make bottled water available to your guests.

Great Location

We enjoyed our stayed near RMNP and found the house to be very conveniently located. It was also a good size for our family of five with enough beds for everyone and a comfortable seating area and kitchen that allowed us to pack food for our hikes. We didn’t find the beds to be as comfortable as other reviewers and found the showers to be small, difficult to use and sub-par overall. We’d recommended the house for a family like ours who wanted to spend most of their time in the park and wanted a house that was conveniently located.

Picture Perfect

This VRBO was a gem!! The owners were very responsive and accommodating. The views from the front porch were breathtaking. We enjoyed coffee in the morning, or watching afternoon thunderstorms roll in over the mountain. The beds were comfortable. There is a well stocked toy box that our toddlers enjoyed thoroughly. We went in mid August and were worried about the temperature inside the cabin… but with the provided fans and so many windows it was quite comfortable! The location of this cabin is second to none!! We were able to visit the RMNP at our leisure. Put some soup in the crockpot and enjoy a day out and about! You are literally close to EVERYTHING. The back porch is quintessential - equipped with a grill and outdoor lights for the perfect family evening. We had the BEST time in Estes Park and will be back to rent this cabin next year!

This is the one!

I stayed here with my three teenagers and we loved it! Stocked with everything you need. Close to the park, restaurants, groceries without having to go through town constantly. We spent many afternoons on the back patio resting after hikes. Absolutely loved it. My18yo on day one said "mom you did a really good job with this place". Thank you very much!

Perfect Mountain Getaway

My siblings and I took a trip to Rocky Mountain National Park and this place was a perfect fit for us. Spacious common area along with 2 bathrooms and stunning views of the park made this spot an excellent choice. We were close to all the amenities Estes Park offered while also being a 5 minute drive to the park entrance. With our sunrise hikes, it was easy to get in and out without having to sit in the entrance lines. Our hosts were super responsive and the rental was clean with ample towels and blankets for us to use.
